Another World Mall

*Aoo!*

Reolf howled at the top of his lungs, challenging the beasts in the area.

As if understanding his language, the beasts started to move, following the origin of the sound. Hundreds of beasts were moving toward Reolf, who had broken through to the side of the bank.

The group managed to swiftly come out to the main lobby earlier, and they headed to their respective positions in less than two minutes. Even though the beasts had been entering the building one after another, they would have a hard time facing Clovis and the others if they couldn't surround them all at once.

As a result, each of them managed to reach their respective positions.

The next phase of their plan began with Reolf's howl. With the beasts approaching him, Reolf could shatter the window before him to reveal his location.

"!!!" The beasts noticed that unexpected disruption, so they couldn't help but turn their heads. It was there they saw a white wolf emerge from the building.

He grabbed the beast in front of him and slammed its head to the ground with a terrifying force. Then he jumped to another beast and bit his neck before continuing to the next target, killing one beast after another in rapid succession.

In that instant, the beasts turned around and chased after Reolf, immediately surrounding him.

Reolf harrumphed and turned to the west before charging forward.

The beasts in that direction wouldn't allow him to leave. They chose a head-on confrontation, believing that their number was enough to stop Reolf.

Of course, Reolf was only a Tier 4 beast, so there was a limit to how much he could fight, especially since there were Tier 5 beast in the mix. But it didn't really matter.

After all, another person emerged from the window earlier and caught up to Reolf before waving her giant blade.

Taken aback by the sudden appearance of the woman, the beasts couldn't prepare a countermeasure and died instantly.

"How dare you try to harm my Reolf?" With the way she talked, the identity of the person who joined this group was none other than Lucifania. "I'm going to kill all of you."

Reolf looked at Luci with a troubled look as if asking, 'Since when am I yours?'

But it didn't really matter. After all, Luci was indeed a great help here.

Both of them hurriedly charged forward, killing so many beasts to forge their path to the east side of the city.

Obviously, the beasts around them hurriedly came after them, not letting them break through their encirclement.

Fortunately, their right side had been protected by the bank's building, but there were still so many beasts coming from the opposite sides. They climbed over the buildings or simply slipped past the alleys.

They came straight to Reolf, who was the nearest. As long as Reolf was stopped, Luci had no choice but to stop as well.

Unfortunately, it was the last thing they could do because the third person that joined this group was Kanaria.

There were gunshots echoing from inside the bank. Each shot was accurate as they took down the beasts that had jumped off the building.

Kanaria came out of the building and started shooting everything on the side so that they couldn't reach Reolf. As long as they kept moving, there shouldn't be any problem with their position.

Still, even if Luci and Reolf could break through the enemy's rank and the building protecting their side, there was one problem they needed to handle.

It was none other than the beasts that chased them from behind.

In the end, breaking through was a much slower process than just chasing after them. That was why there was a need for someone to take on that role.

Melody had two choices, but it seemed she wanted to make sure the main party had all the firepower they got.

As a result, Ragna emerged last, protecting their rear. This was the first group that Melody had chosen. It consisted of four people who acted as bait.

Their combat prowess was not the strongest, but at the same time, they were not necessarily the lowest. Hence, they were more suitable to drag the enemies away from the main party.

The Tier 5 beast among them wouldn't allow them to break through. It jumped into the sky and smashed Reolf as if telling him that he was an embarrassment who chose to lower its head to the likes of humans.

Unexpectedly, Reolf swiftly avoided him by using his special ability before slapping him away. If it was a normal beast soul, he wouldn't have been able to overwhelm him with his speed, but this beast soul had been strengthened by the painting from Another World Mall.

Even if it wasn't enough to kill the beast or even injure him, it was enough to create a gap in their rank.

As such, Luci and Reolf sped up, approaching the last line of defense.

With this kind of development, it wouldn't be weird for Reolf and the others to break through their formation. However, there was one beast that definitely couldn't allow it to happen.

It was none other than the Tier 7 beast.

*Grooo!* The rhino blasted the building on the side, creating a path toward Reolf's group.

The Tier 7 beast, Morganucodon, leaped toward Reolf, wanting to personally end him.

Kanaria hurriedly tossed a grenade, but the explosion could only stop the rhino for a few seconds. Meanwhile, the Morganucodon still continued toward Reolf.

"Reolf!" Kanaria shouted.

Reolf turned his head around, but it was too late. The Morganucodon had already reached him and swung his claws.

*Clink!*

Instead of the sound of flesh being ripped apart, a clicking sound actually echoed in the area.

"!!!" The Tier 7 beast looked shocked because it couldn't sense Aileen this whole time. It was only when she was about to go after him that he noticed her presence.

"Just like you, I'm also stealth." Aileen smiled. She never intended to fight the Tier 7 beast head-on. Once she stopped the first strike, Aileen stepped away as three gas grenades landed on the ground and began producing the smoke.

"!!!" There was no way the Morganucodon would let them leave, but before it could chase after Aileen, her presence had disappeared. A split second after the shock, the Morganucodon suddenly felt his instinct was urging him toward another direction.

With this, the Morganucodon wouldn't be able to follow the rest of them to chase after Reolf's group, and the smoke screen would make the beasts not notice what was actually going on.

"I've caught him."

"Well, well. Don't get too excited. That beast is still not alone."

"Either way, it's time for us to have a fight with this so-called Tier 7 beast."

"Yours truly will show you how to fight a high tier beast like this."

Once most beasts had passed, four people emerged from the building. They were none other than Clovis, Christina, Erwin, and Jay. These four were the last group, the ones who were responsible for killing the Tier 7 beast.
